Charlotte Harbor Fishing Report

Fishing has been as hot as it can get through out the year, and has been one of my personal best. The snook, redfish, trout, and of course my favorite the tarpon cooperated all through the season. I spent numerous days and hours fishing with clients from all over and just had such a tremendous time, I couldn't even find time to keep an updated fishing report. Now with the summer months here things have slowed down enough I can find the time to be consistent writing and trying my best to keep you updated on the fishing scene in and around Boca Grande and Charlotte Harbor area.

The redfish action is starting to heat up in Charlotte Harbor with some schools of oversized fish being caught. Snook are still being caught at the beaches and passes, especially on out going tides; remember however this is still catch and release for another month. Tarpon have left Boca Grande Pass but numerous schools and numbers worth targeting are still in the Charlotte Harbor. With high temperatures during the day the best fishing times will be early in the morning or late in the afternoon.

Also don't forget the last of the Redsnook Tournament Series will be Sept. 20-22 check them out at www.redsnook.com this is still an exciting tournament with some big money prizes. Our team is still holding on to fifth place in the professional standings and we are hoping for a first place win in Sept. there are some great teams in the professional division and it will take more than luck on our part.
